摘要
This study investigates whether relaxation of firms' financial constraints is an important outcome of the US cross-listing mechanism. We use the association between investment spending and cash flow to test for the presence and importance of firms' financing constraints. Consistent with the bonding hypothesis, the results suggest that US exchange and private placement cross-listings significantly alleviate firms' financing constraints. In addition, the financial benefits associated with exchange listings are larger than those associated with private listings, while on the other hand, over-the-counter programs do not improve capital allocation. The study also shows that US exchange cross-listing benefits have not been eroded by the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Act in 2002. Copyright (c) 2014 ASAC.
